Yesterday me, Ashley, Jane, Doc, and Ryan hopped in a car and drove to Champaign, IL, which I had been to on a previous day off. It was nice to get away from Sullivan, and we had a lot of fun. Out of everyone here these four are some of my favorite people here, and we always have a good time.
We walked around and did some shopping and browsing, and we ate dinner at a place called the Flat Top Grill. It was pretty good, I think you go there more for the idea of creating your own dish more than anything. Basically you have a ton of stir fry options, so you load up your bowl and give it to them and then they cook it and bring it out to you. It's pretty good, but not my favorite by any means. Then we drove back and we watched The Devil Wears Prada because Doc had never seen it before. Such a good movie! Especially since I kind of feel like I'm in Andy's position of looking for jobs and maybe taking odd jobs until I get my dream job, whatever that is haha.
This morning I got up and Janie hosted a TYA brunch for everyone at her house which was nice. We had eggs and pancakes and bacon and toast and I brought a pineapple. She had the slip-n-slide out, but it was soooo hot so I stayed in and played bananagrams haha. We had a production meeting at 1pm for Joseph in the Park (which will be interesting if anything else), and then I've just been lounging around and applied to some jobs and stuff. Craig had his interview today in the city and he said it went really really well. I really hope he gets this job. He deserves it. Michelle has been looking at apartments so everything is slowly starting to come into place, and it seems like Craig will be in the city sooner than later too which makes me happy.
I think normally I would hesitate to live with a boyfriend after dating them for only about 7 months, but I'm not worried at all. Craig and I get along so well and we've basically lived together any time either one of us would come and visit, so I think it will be great. I'm just really excited to spend much more time with him than I've been able to in the past.
I've been applying for these more administrative jobs and it makes me a little nervous because it's out of my comfort zone. I just put together my first real person resume and have been writing cover letters, and I have no idea if what I'm doing it right or not, but hopefully I'll get a chance with someone because I think I could really succeed at any of these jobs I'm applying for. The job descriptions seems right up my alley and are definitely things I want to be doing in life. It would be SO nice to finally be on some kind of salary too, it would just take off that looming presence of uncertainty and instability, if only for a little bit.
I was looking through pictures of Oxford earlier and I miss it so much! It was such a great trip and the country is just stunning. I will definitely go back some day.
Well I'm going to take a nap before the show tonight. Ashley, Ryan, and I made a s'mores bar and it is DELICIOUS! I'll have to remember to find the recipe and make it again.
Words of wisdom for today:
Give with a truly glad heart, Chris, for the sole purpose of the good it will do, and whatever you give shall return to you, multiplied, as if on wings, covered in sparkles.
Richly,
The Universe
Anddddd a picture :)
